Timber: EU Law
- Question
-
Her Majesty's Government whether they plan to convert EU Regulation 995/2010 into UK law; and if so, whether the UK will continue to recognise monitoring organisations for timber and timber products that previously served the UK market but which are located outside the UK.
- Answer
-
The Repeal Bill will ensure the whole body of existing EU environmental law continues to have effect in UK law. This will provide businesses and stakeholders with maximum certainty as we leave the EU.
No decision has yet been taken on the approach to UK recognition of monitoring organisations for timber and timber products that previously served the UK market but which are located outside the UK.
